Roots Of Our Tree

-

 It was more than a house and a peace of land,

It was a beginning,

It was a foundation,

It was a home,

It was more than a place to rest our heads,

It was where we all came together,

It was where the word home had meaning,

It was where you was always greeted with a warm smile and hug,

It was more than just a building,

It was the start of a family,

It was a start of what love truly was,

It was a start of two souls looking over us,

It was more than a house and a peace of land,

It was a place my great grandparents made our beginnings,

It was where all my love for life and family started,

It was more than a place to me,

It was who they was and is,

It was a place we all saw as a home away from home,

It was My great grandparents life, love, and hope for us,

It's their essence,

Their peace and joy,

And it's our roots of our Tree as a family.

Tattered Soul

It has been in a war that no one could understand, It's been wounded from the bottom to the top, But yet it keeps going, It feels the weight of the world as it passes through centuries, Each life it has fought to stay alive, It has battled many demons that is within, Fought those that mean harm to it and others,  It has seen heaven and hell, It has seen life and death, It was given a choice, A choice to defend the depressed and lonely And a choice to leave and let the world burn, Tattered as it maybe it will never abandon those who need them, The soul is you, The soul is me, The tattered soul has been through it all, The tattered soul has it all, But what the tattered soul doesn't have is peace of mind and safety, Safety from its own thoughts, Safety from the bad memories, Safety from who they once was, Safety from the voices inside their head, Peace from the battel they was thrown into, Peace from the cries of those that has been hurt, Peace from the nightmares, Peace from the...

I Am The Pheonix

 I am the fire that burns within,  I burn the impurity that is poisoning the soul, I burn and burn until there is no more life left, When all seems bleak and unclear I emerge from the ashes brand new, I am the new beginning, I am that new breath of fresh air, The old me died within the fire, Died with the burning ember within my heart, Died knowing it will all end soon, Only to rise to shake off the ash of the old, To spread my fiery wings across the darken sky, To inspire the change that is needed, To encourage hope, To brighten the way to the new life that has been granted, I am the fire that burns within, I am.... The Pheonix.

I Remember That Night

-
I remember, I remember how it felt when they hurt you, They put you in a kind of hell that took you from my arms, They kept gnawing at the threads like the rats they are, I remember, I remember your heart shattering right in front of me, They couldn't see what they did was wrong, They said things that not only affected you but I as well, They took my world from me that day, They didn't take you physically but mentally, By doing so they left me feeling like I wasn't good enough, Left me feeling like I should not be with you, Had me second guessing my abilities to be around a child, Had me doubting I was a good person, Had me believing that no one should be with me or around me, I remember, I remember that night where you didn't know if you could trust me, That night for me was as awful, I saw the life being drained from you, I saw your heart shatter into pieces, That night was also the night I felt like I lost you, Lost you not only by what they did but by my own insecur...
